Industrial Design
Summary - The Revit Drafter’s focus in a design team is the creation and development of construction documents. This will require the Drafter to coordinate heavily with their Designer to complete the goal.
Essential functions - As a Drafter in a design team, your personal skills will allow you to coordinate effectively with your Designer and others. During design, you are a crucial part of the design team; your professionalism and experience are relied on to complete projects. Your Project Engineer and Discipline lead depend on you for:
As-builds
Field observations
File creation in Industrial Designs authoring format
Sheet creation
Block / family creation
Annotations
Plotting
Communication and coordination with other disciplines
Following design standards (text height, annotation standards, view usage, etc.)
Maintaining proper file housekeeping (i.e., layers, view allocations, phase allocation, etc.)
Picking up redline corrections from your Project Engineer.
Project coordination - The day-to-day responsibilities will require task coordination with your Project Engineer. Your Project Engineer will coordinate with you on content for plans, sections, elevations, and details to accomplish the design intent. It should be understood that to develop construction documents, there will be several changes and iterations until the overall design intent is achieved. As design progresses, you may be asked to participate by your Design or Discipline lead in:
Internal coordination meetings
Discipline coordination meetings
Meeting minute notation
Design reviews
Although these are not your direct responsibilities, it is up to your Project Engineer and Discipline lead if your participation is required. Sometimes these duties can lead to beneficial information to develop your project, but they are not always critical for your progression.
Construction administration - During the construction phase of a project, our completed package is given to a general contractor to onboard trades for construction. During this phase, we will receive Requests for Information (RFI) and Submittals (verification of items being purchased per spec). These are mainly the responsibilities of your designer based on the impact these items will have on construction. An incorrect RFI or submittal could exponentially affect a project and should be taken as seriously as design. Your main responsibilities during this are to:
Revise the package based on RFI response.
Rev cloud and triangles
Convert construction as-builts into our design documents for record set (red to black)
As-builts
While going through the construction phase of a project, you may be asked by your designer to assist in the following items:
Coordinate with other disciplines based on changes.
Attend field walks.
Participation in these tasks is per the direction of your Project Engineer and is the responsibility of your Project Engineer to verify they are completed properly.
Environmental Factors – Field work, heights, enclosed spaces, hot/cold, noisy, and other dangers.
Physical demands - Sitting, standing, lifting, carrying, reaching, pushing, and pulling.
Travel required – Some travel may be required.
Required education and experience
High school Diploma or GED
